Merrick & Company
Incorporating the needs of science into their project solutions has long been Merrick’s approach. In these days of ebola and avian flu outbreaks, bioterrorism, and major innovations in disease prevention and control, the need for efficient, safe, and secure science has grown. For nearly 30 years, Merrick has provided solutions for science through our work in facilities and lab design, operations and transition planning, forensic and certification assessments, and biosafety and biosecurity. Their designs always consider the environmental footprints of laboratories and seek sustainable solutions.
BIO-ISAC
The Bioeconomy Information Sharing and Analysis Center (BIO-ISAC), is the critical resource for cyber threat detection, prevention, protection, response, recovery and resilience for the nation, addressing threats unique to the bioeconomy and enabling coordination among stakeholders to facilitate a robust and secure industry. The BIO-ISAC is a 501(c)3 nonprofit member organization (pending), formally chartered in 2021. BIO-ISAC provides a central resource for gathering information on threats to infrastructure impacting and forming the bioeconomy and two-way sharing of information between and among public and private sectors in order to identify, protect, detect, respond, recover, and build resilience from attacks on public and private bioeconomy infrastructure. BIO-ISAC helps spur the development and evaluation of defensive tools to address these threats and includes vulnerability identification and mitigation and education and outreach aimed at reducing risk to the nation’s biosecurity infrastructure.
Vivid Biotechnologies
Vivid’s mission is to support the evolution of personalized evaluation and care. High performance materials for use in diagnostic and therapeutic applications can take many years and significant funding to develop. Materials, such as antibodies, need to be tailored to perform in very specific applications and under narrow technical constraints. Vivid’s experience in molecular medicine and assay design will dramatically shorten the path to effective, high performing materials required for solid answers, regulatory approval, and successful clinical implementation.
The Sequencing Center
With +15 years in the industry, The Sequencing Center’s CEO, Richard Casey Ph.D, has long believed that the future of biological and medical discoveries will be driven by genomics. After years of watching fellow colleagues struggle to get critical genomic data for their research, he decided in 2016 it was time to solve this problem in the commercial business realm. He envisioned a world where genome sequencing would be an effortless and efficient process at prices that wouldn’t decimate entire grants or take months to receive data for a single sample.
University of Colorado Boulder
As one of only 36 U.S. public research institutions in the Association of American Universities (AAU), the University of Colorado Boulder is all about realizing the positive impacts of new knowledge. From offering dozens of exciting programs in a range of academic fields, to serving as one of the world’s most dynamic research and innovation hubs, to working closely through hundreds of public outreach efforts with communities across Colorado and the world, we take pride in helping our students, faculty, staff and partners turn new ideas into productive outcomes that change lives.
